Necessary Body Parts?

[Nenquel]

Hi there,

 

I found this tes IV tutorial for creating my own armor in blender.

There is a section that explains what the necessary body parts are in oblivion, but how is it new vegas? I think it's still the skeleton.nif, but i have no idea about the rest.. (chest, arms, hands, feet..)

And moreover what am I supposed to do with the meatcaps? do they need to be a part of the armor?

 

I would really appreciate it if some one could upload .blend templates for a male and female body! But I would be happy with a simple answer as well.

 

Regards

There are really only a few parts: left hand, right hand, head, body (or upperbody as it is called in the geck). Feet aren't separate. Upper and lower body is not separate.

Gloves and some things like weapon backpacks are separate items, attached to the armor via 'biped list' (or something to that effect)

Meatcaps are part of the armor, there is a flag on them to hide them until necessary.

 

Import the nif of your armor of choice and it will be pretty clear.
